Soil Moisture Sensors

Soil Moisture Sensors are essential tools for measuring the volumetric water content in soil, providing real-time data that supports smarter irrigation practices, improved crop yields, and sustainable land management. At Wasteless Bio, we offer a range of high-precision soil moisture sensors suited for agricultural operations, environmental research, and climate studies. By repurposing surplus lab and field equipment, we help you access dependable technology at reduced costs—while also promoting sustainability through reuse. Soil moisture directly impacts plant health, nutrient uptake, and microbial activity. Overwatering can lead to root diseases and nutrient leaching, while underwatering can stress crops and reduce yields. With soil moisture sensors, farmers and agronomists can make data-driven decisions about when and how much to irrigate, reducing water waste and improving agricultural efficiency. In environmental research, these sensors help monitor soil hydration trends across different ecosystems and assess the impact of climate change on water cycles. Our inventory includes capacitance, time-domain reflectometry (TDR), frequency domain reflectometry (FDR), and gypsum block soil moisture sensors. These technologies vary in terms of accuracy, depth range, installation type, and compatibility with data loggers and wireless monitoring systems. Many of our listings feature compact, rugged sensors suitable for in-field deployment in both open farmland and controlled greenhouse environments. We frequently stock soil moisture equipment from leading brands like METER Group (Decagon), Campbell Scientific, Spectrum Technologies, and Irrometer. Each listing includes important technical specifications such as sensor length, output signal type, operating temperature range, and soil type compatibility, allowing you to choose the right tool for your application. Purchasing repurposed soil moisture sensors from Wasteless Bio offers a budget-friendly way to access high-quality agricultural monitoring equipment. Whether you're optimizing irrigation systems, conducting drought response research, or evaluating soil health, our soil moisture sensors provide reliable, accurate insights to help you make informed decisions that benefit crops, conserve water, and support environmental stewardship.
